Taco Bell Mtn Dew Kickstart Black Cherry Freeze

[New for 2014] While my Nosh Show cohorts are busy choking down the new breakfast menu at Taco Bell, I decided to take the frozen route and chug their latest freeze flavor with my lunch the other day.... and boy did it give me a laugh.

Taco Bell Mtn Dew Kickstart Black Cherry Freeze

(looks kind of gritty, doesn't it?)

I took one sip and realized this was going to be way more potent than it's canned counterpart. See, I had tried the canned version before episode 21 of the Nosh Show and thought it a decent beverage, but this was a real kick in the pants. More flavor, more bite, more caffeine... and in a moment when I needed to blow off a bit of steam, it's way more fun.

My buddy has spent decades growing immune to my childish ways, so he continued our conversation as I built my frozen masterpiece. At some point in your life, you've tried doing this with a slurpee or an icee, but never has it been done with such success. Yes, in my caffeine fueled giggle fit, I managed to grow the spire above the rim of the cup before it came crashing down. Ahhhh, fun times.

If you like a chemical taste then Mcdonalds black cherry will be ok. But personally it sucks. I specifically asked them if this had caffeine (I can not have it after 2 or I will not sleep) the answer no it does not have caffeine. So much for disclosure..
